LexisNexis has launched Lexis+ with Protégé, its legal AI platform, in the Middle East and North Africa, beginning with the United Arab Emirates LexisNexis launches AI legal platform. The service is aimed at lawyers and legal teams operating across federal, emirate, free-zone and mixed civil-common law jurisdictions in the region.
The platform lets users pose legal questions in plain language and receive answers drawn from LexisNexis sources. For larger assignments such as due diligence, it decomposes the work into discrete steps for review. It also supports contract and memo drafting, document uploads to flag key issues, and can translate and summarise case decisions in Arabic and English. Content coverage includes UAE federal law, the seven emirates’ regulations, and relevant case law.
LexisNexis emphasises that client data will never be used to train public AI models, positioning trust as a bigger hurdle than adoption in MENA. Local legal professionals helped build and test the system, and the company will release validated regional performance data as testing continues.
